# --description--

As the `.ground` element will be third in the stacking context of the page layout, set its `z-index` to `3`, and `position` to `absolute`.

# --hints--

You should give `.ground` a `z-index` of `3`.

```js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.ground')?.zIndex, '3');
```

You should give `.ground` a `position` of `absolute`.

```js
assert.equal(new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.ground')?.position, 'absolute');
```
